I move amendment No. 8:

In page 14, line 36, after "Minister" to insert "from a short list approved by the Public Appointments Service".

It is straightforward. We raised the issue of various appointments, whether it is the chief executive officer, CEO, or board members, and the need to go through the Public Appointments Service, PAS. The officials indicated that is the intention anyway so the amendments are just to make that a legislative requirement.
